Ronald Jack Brackett

Ronald Jack Brackett, fondly known as “Ron”, 84, of Richmond, Texas passed away on April 20, 2025 in Richmond, Texas. He was born on June 5, 1940 in Pike County, Kentucky to Jack and Imogene “Jean” (Webb) Brackett. Ron honorably served our country in the U.S. Army and spent over 40+ years afterward working in the Air Conditioning and Heating field. His hobbies included rebuilding and tinkering around with cars, especially corvettes, and later in his retired years he spent time fixing up old bicycles providing them with a 2nd chance at life. Some of Ron’s favorite things to do included watching old westerns, listening to old country music, walking around flea markets, car shows, swap meets, and to visit pawn shops, always on the hunt for a good bargain, but most of all he loved spending time with his family. He might have been a quiet soul and deep thinker, but he had a great humor, and fun personality with a lot of spunk. This loving husband, father, PaPa/Grandpa, great grandfather, brother, and friend will be greatly missed by all those that loved him. In addition to his parents, Ron is preceded in death by his daughter, Rhonda “Gina” Ginabelle McIntosh and son-in-law Eddy, daughter-in-law Katherine Nelson Brackett, and his sister-in-law, Judy (Miller) Brackett.
